Goulash
So I did an image search on "goulash" today and this is what came up.
When I was growing up, my dad and mom made goulash, which was basically a cheap way to feed 4 hungry kids. Elbow noodles, ground beef and tomato sauce. Always topped with "sprinkle cheese."
When I got to college, I learned rather abruptly that my beloved "goulash" as I called it was, in reality, called "American Chop Suey." Wow, major letdown, lemmetellya.
So I did a Google image search on "american chop suey" and this is what came up. Not so different! Except all the authentic Hungarian, Czech and Russian versions weren't included.
This all got me thinking - how do you all make "goulash?" And if it's not authentic Eastern European fare, what do you call it?
Would anyone be interested in posting their goulash (American Chop Suey) recipes here, and maybe I'll even try making them and we can have a little contest to discover who's goulash reigns supreme? Yea, a little nod to the Iron Chef there...
Post away! I can't guarantee the privacy of your family secrets here, but if you don't mind sharing with the world, let's see what you've got!
